What happened is that since the first line read: Q: What's going thru a bug's mind as he hits the windshield (and that line is the only one missing from what you got), some machine saw the line beginning with an upper case letter and containing a colon, interpreted it as an unrecognized header line, and discarded it. The message went through quite a few machines to get to you, so it could have been clobbered anywhere. This header line bug was in the gamma B news and there are LOTS of machines out there with that bug. It's fixed in the B news which was released today. (The fix for this particular bug is simply to put a blank line after the header.) When everybody installs the released news it will have gone away. Mark
